HYPOXIC ISCHEMIC ENCEPHALOPATHY

This early-stage trial tests whether metformin, a common diabetes drug, is safe and feasible for infants who suffered brain injury from lack of oxygen at birth. Thirty infants under 6 months old will receive metformin for 6 weeks, with close monitoring of kidney and liver functio…

This study looks at how caffeine is processed in newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a brain injury caused by lack of oxygen, who are receiving cooling therapy. Researchers will test different doses of caffeine in 16 babies to find the safest and most effective a…

This observational study follows 36 people with neurologic conditions like traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, or Alzheimer's who are already receiving intranasal MuSE stem cell or exosome therapy as part of their routine care. Researchers track safety and…

This study looks at over 3,400 newborns who are not vigorous at birth (between 35 and 42 weeks). Doctors want to see if milking the umbilical cord (pushing blood into the baby) before clamping it leads to fewer cases of brain injury or death compared to clamping the cord right aw…

This study is creating a database of medical information and biological samples (blood, urine, and cheek swabs) from 1,000 newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a type of brain injury caused by lack of oxygen. The goal is to measure biomarkers in the blood that cou…

This study follows about 300 children who had seizures shortly after birth to see if their genes influence whether they develop epilepsy later in childhood. Researchers will combine genetic information with brain scans and EEG results to create a risk score. No new treatments are…
